Gene: PER1
Official Full Name: period circadian regulator 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene is a member of the Period family of genes and is expressed in a circadian pattern in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the primary circadian pacemaker in the mammalian brain. Genes in this family encode components of the circadian rhythms of locomotor activity, metabolism, and behavior. This gene is upregulated by CLOCK/ARNTL heterodimers but then represses this upregulation in a feedback loop using PER/CRY heterodimers to interact with CLOCK/ARNTL. Polymorphisms in this gene may increase the risk of getting certain cancers. Alternative splicing has been observed in this gene; however, these variants have not been fully described.

PER1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models specifically designed to study the role of the Period circadian clock 1 (PER1) gene in biological processes. This product features a precision knockout of the PER1 gene, which encodes a critical component of the circadian rhythm, allowing researchers to investigate its effects on cellular metabolism, gene expression, and overall circadian regulation.
The primary mechanism of action for the PER1 gene knockout involves the disruption of the endogenous PER1 gene, utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 technology. This reaction leads to the complete absence of PER1 protein, enabling detailed analyses of circadian rhythm disruptions and their implications in various physiological and pathological contexts. By manipulating this key regulator, scientists can elucidate the gene's role in processes such as sleep disorders, metabolic syndromes, and even cancer biology, thereby providing insights into potential therapeutic targets.
The scientific importance of PER1 gene knockout cell lines is profound, with applications ranging from basic research in chronobiology to translational studies in clinical settings. They serve as invaluable tools to understand how circadian misalignments influence health outcomes and the molecular underpinnings of relevant diseases.
One significant advantage of using PER1 gene knockout cell lines is their specificity, as they eliminate potential off-target effects commonly associated with traditional gene silencing methods. This specificity improves the reliability of experimental results, making it easier for researchers and clinicians to draw robust conclusions.
Our PER1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are designed for scientists focused on expanding their understanding of circadian biology and its implications on health and disease. By investing in this product, researchers gain access to a reliable and efficient tool that directly responds to the demands of modern biological research.
